why not get the same fish about half the size . a 180 is a nice tank but its onyl six feet . fishes that size would be bettor suited in a 265tank which i believe is 8 ft long.

Inches of fish means nothing really. You need to look at bio load and filtration in my opinion. Plus the tank alone is not suited for the sizes.

i'm sorry - maybe i wasn't clear enough-
- i would be getting all these fish as juvys 3-5 " and grow them -
this 180 i plan on, is for the spring - i currently have a 90 g peaceful fowlr running 12 months now -
the inches i listed is from research i am gathering -

id drop the angel, eel, and wrasse and pick 2 medium size fish, like a smaller wrasse, buterfly, anthias or dwarf angel of some type.
